<\/picture><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\nA long overdue video which should probably have been posted a few years ago along with what has now become my most visited post to date – Homemade Oat Milk<\/a>. However, not until when I recently stumbled upon this post<\/a> from The Tropical Vegan, that I gave my homemade oat milk a whole new spin. It’s those moments when you can’t help tap yourself on the head thinking why haven’t I thought of that before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I do sometimes make coconut milk from the desiccated flakes but never have I thought of mixing the two. Indeed, a tablespoon of coconut flakes along with the oats makes a whole lot of difference to the milk. It helps the oat particles hold together better and lessens the sliminess. I never make oat milk any other way now, definitely a keeper. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Since both Kevin and I are allergic to most nuts and we have reduced our soy milk consumption to almost zero, the Lovlie Cocoon never goes by a week without at least three batches of oat milk made. We use it in our teas, smoothies, cereals, sauces, baking, you name it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I’ve used quick oats, which require no soaking, in the recipe but I have recently started to use oat groats soaked overnight, drained and rinsed before grinding in the same way. Organic oat groats, that I have started to buy in bulk, make a tastier milkier consistency and are cheaper too. If you are allergic to gluten, use gluten free oats.<\/p>\n\n\n\nCoconut Oat Milk<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
